President Donald Trump, today in the Oval Office, after being asked a question by an ABC News reporter regarding the Epstein files:
People are wise to your hoax. ABC, your company, your crappy
company, is one of the perpetrators. And I’ll tell you something,
I think the license should be taken away from ABC because your
news is so fake, and it’s so wrong. And we have a great
commissioner, a chairman, who should look at that.
Disney (ABC’s owner), a year ago settled a lawsuit Trump filed against ABC News — a lawsuit most experts agreed ABC would have won — for $16 million, in what clearly amounted to a bribe.
Yours truly, last month, in a post on Apple’s capitulation to Trump regarding the ICEBlock app for iOS:
When you give a bully your lunch money, they always come back
for more.
I think Bob Iger gets that now. “Fuck you, make me” remains the correct response to these threats.
